This schools is incredible! It has everything you need and all of the faculty is very helpful and will work with you. The campus always made me feel safe and the surrounding location is very safe.

Great school! Met my best friends here and got a great education. Hard to believe that this school is in Georgia! You get the best of both worlds. The beauty of the country and a great academic school that is not super big like UGA!

To me, VSU is a great school to attend. The professors are simply amazing and truly care about their students (at least the ones I have had so far). VSU does not mind helping its students and gives them amazing opportunities to reach their goals, such as the career opportunities office that many do not know of.

I literally hate everyone and everything here. If there were any singular decision I could go back in time and reset, it would be submitted an application to this prison. GO ANYWHERE ELSE.

Overall just doesn't really wow me here. Everything in the Engineering/Physics department is outdated, just not a great "vibe".

this place is the worst

Do not take come to this school. The teachers are useless, you end up teaching yourself. They are not understanding or willing to work with you if you have an emergency situation. The Advisor also suck when it comes to explaining if you’ve finished all of the needed requirements for your degree. It’s overpriced and overrated.

This school is the main source of my depression.

Just a blah school.
Overall 1.9
DO NOT GO HERE!! They make it look so good on the website and in all the emails they send but it is not like that in real life! The food has no taste most of the time, the dorms are awful, the internet is spotty, the classes aren't even that great! My biggest regret was going to that school! I transferred after 1 year and I've been so much happier.

Stick with a community college if VSU is your only other option, I guarantee it'll be a better experience. VSU was absolutely miserable to be at. Aside from my one good professor, being here made me so depressed I could barely get up. This school is horrible. I can count on one hand the amount of people who were kind here. Not worth it.
